Want to know what all the fuss is about?

Here's the lo-down on Hypnobirthing:

First things first - it is not a method of pain relief! This is a common misconception but whilst the techniques you learn with Hypnobirthing will certainly stack the odds in favour of a smoother and more comfortable labour, it actually provides a FULL antenatal education PLUS a lot, lot more... 


My course will provide you with the powerful knowledge and tools to let go of any fears or anxieties you have about birth, and instead focus on building positivity and confidence, allowing you to actually get EXCITED about the birth of your baby! I will change your perceptions of birth from the painful, unmanageable ordeal that everyone tends to expect, to the instinctive, gentle and empowering experience that birth should be - HOWEVER birth happens.


I will teach you life-changing skills including deep relaxation, visualisation and breathing techniques alongside a sound knowledge of labour and birth physiology, your choices about your care & physical preparation. Not only this, but I'll teach your birth partner what they can do every step of the way to make this pregnancy and birth a calm, incredible team effort. Let's make sure there's no helpless 'spare part' stressing in your birth room!  


Far from only being a bunch of techniques to use on the day of birth, my hypnobirthing course provides EVERYTHING you need to know! As one of my lovely couples commented recently "I really wish we'd done it first time round...we found it a million times more useful than NCT"


The course is made up of lots of logical, simple, practical elements, which together will make a profound difference to how calm, relaxed and in control you feel during pregnancy and birth.


So, despite the name 'Hypnobirthing', there's nothing airy fairy here. Strictly no woo woo or vagina whispering! Actually, it's my real, honest insights as an experienced practising midwife and hypnobirthing mum-of-two that really sets this course aside from any other. You will gain precious insider knowledge of how the maternity care system works, how to work with care providers to achieve the best outcome for you,  and the ability to make safe but personalised informed decisions for you and your baby. 


You only get to birth this baby once and it should be a life-changing experience for the right reasons! Let me share with you the ability to relax & enjoy birth, no matter which planned or unexpected directions your birth journey takes you in...

Where has Hypnobirthing come from?


“Hypnobirthing is soundly based on established medical knowledge.”


The seeds were first sown with the work of eminent obstetrician Dr. Grantly Dick-Read. He witnessed a homebirth in the slums of the London docks in 1913, where the mother refused any pain relief, giving birth quickly and apparently comfortably. Grantly Dick-Read was truly amazed.

 

When he asked afterwards why she refused the pain relief, the mother commented “It didn’t hurt. It wasn’t meant to was it, Doctor?”  This experience was defining, and after a career of working on the battle field and in hospitals he theorised that fear was the overriding cause that led to pain in childbirth.  In his well-regarded book “Childbirth Without Fear”, he hypothesised that when you are fearful, you tense up and the natural birth process is inhibited, becoming longer and more painful.


Over the years these theories have been fully vindicated with research into how hormones work during childbirth. Grantly Dick-Read's principles have been further developed by a number of natural birth practitioners, with Hypnobirthing being the most notable and widely practised.  


Today Hypnobirthing is known by every midwife in the UK and many have trained in KG Hypnobirthing, including professors of midwifery and NHS heads of midwifery.  It is practised internationally and is rapidly spreading throughout the world. Join me in spreading the positivity of KG Hypnobirthing in Bristol and Somerset!
